Porsche 919 Evo smashes Nurburgring lap record

The previous record of six minutes and 11.13 seconds, set by Stefan Bellof in a Porsche 956, had stood for an impressive 35 years.

That was until earlier this week, when a 919 driven by Le Mans winner Timo Bernhard went around the legendary circuit in FIVE MINUTES and 19.545 seconds!

How in God's name do you shave the best part of a minute off a record which has stood for so long?

Remarkable stuff. Check the onboard footage of this historic run.

Ferrari, McLaren; what you got?
